Here’s some of what you can do on PubLaunch:
Start by choosing the type of publishing plan that will work for you: build your own team of freelance publishing suppliers, or work with a publisher or publishing consultant who will help you manage your project.
Tell us about your book project and what services you’re looking for. Based on these services, explore our curated list of trusted industry professionals and select the people you’d like to have on your publishing team. Receive a full, automated estimate for your book project through the site, and suppliers will let you know if they’re available.
Want someone to manage your project for you? Explore our curated list of trusted hybrid publishers and publishing consultants, then submit your book to those you’d like to work with. If the publisher or consultant is interested in pursuing your project, they’ll provide a full estimate and a contract for their services.
After you’ve received your invoice for your publishing team or your publisher, you can raise the funds needed to pay for your invoice using our crowdfunding platform.
Work with your team right away by paying directly. All payments are processed through Stripe, our secure third-party payment processor.
Once your payment goes through, you’ll have access to your book project’s Launchroom. Here you can track the progress of your book project, share documents with your team, and communicate with your suppliers.
